Lyrics: Sabih Gozen
Gozlerinin icine baska hayal girmesin
Bana ait olan cizgiler dikkat et silinmesin
Istersen yum gozunu tipki dusunurler gibi
Benden evvel baskasi bakip seni gormesin
Kiskanirdim seni ben kendi gozumden bile
Nasil verirdim seni bir gun yabanci ele
Sana gelen yollarda daima beni bekle
